FORGIVE, AND YOU WILL BE FORGIVEN.

My friend told me that someone was spreading gossip about me. I asked her who, and she said she knew but could not tell me. I asked why, and she said she told her she would not reveal her identity. I thought friends helped each other in these situations. I explained that I wanted to talk to this person to forgive her and share the truth. My friend refused to tell me, and instead of helping us resolve the matter, she made things worse. I am broken on the inside and unsure if I can forgive either.

Who has hurt you? Have you forgiven them, or still holding on to the offense? Jesus sees your brokenness and feels your pain. He knows that people will betray you as they betrayed Him. He offers you forgiveness and asks that you forgive as you have been forgiven. It is not easy to let go of the hurt and move forward, but once you do, you will be set free!

PRAYER

Dear Lord, I feel your saving grace covering me all over, even when I make mistakes and refuse to forgive. There is nothing I can do to make you love me less. You have fully forgiven me as you laid my sins out on your cross and took them from me. My salvation is secure in you forever, and I am eternally grateful and filled with praise and thanksgiving! In Jesus’ name, Amen.

PRAISE

Thank God that He has saved you with His unending grace and forgiveness!

PROMISE
